Nah, I think Love and Deepspace is marketed as an otome game. If they don't use the word 'otome', they'd still market is as a game for women. I think you're probably talking about Jack Jeanne? It does have a female protag that can bond with male characters, but the romance is honestly not a...

Honestly, I'd call Infinity Nikki as josei-muke(translated as 'for women'). In the broad sense, all otome games are josei-muke(because otome games are geared 'for women'), but not all otome games are josei-muke, because otome games focus on romance. IN does not have romance, afaik(there are...

Saaaame! I tend to skim through voice cast and play mostly blind. However, I do have a VA that I particular don't like(his voice is associated with bad memories for me from a previous role of his. And during that time I randomly watched a talk show coincidentally with him as a guest and his...

With portrait/sprite, always! I rarely self-insert, but I think having CGs where the MC doesn't have a face looks weird/off compared to CGs where the MC does have a face, whether you self-insert or not. And honestly, I think it's easier to self-insert if the MC does have an actual personality...

The only otome gacha game I consistently played before was Tears of Themis. Unfortunately, I'm in the camp who isn't so interested in event cards & banners, and was only interested in the main story. I reached the latest chapter way back then(I was one of the players who started playing during...

Oh, haha. When I was a teenager, I was intrigued about VA work. Now, I never actually tried auditioning(or maybe I did...? Yeah, I think I did try once but never got a response. Lmao), but I've lurked and checked VA hiring in indie games out of curiosity before. A lot of them DO have general...

In a lot of games, I usually do the 'recommended' order, so thinking my first finished route as the MC's 'canon' husband rarely happens, especially because I'm the type who likes to save the best for last. haha. And there're games that lock the 'main' or kinda 'canon' LI, so yeah. I almost never...

Lmao. I have a firm preference to play games / watch anime in their original language. Before, I just thought I prefer Japanese voice acting. But then when I checked out the Japanese dub of Mo Dao Zu Shi and tried playing Tears of Themis with Japanese voices, it gave me pause. Then I quickly put...

Oooh interesting... I honestly think I wouldn't mind as much if western romance games do that kind of thing(not that I've played any that I remember..) In my case, I'd probably like it if the LIs that were not chosen in the current route I'm playing would 'move on' the longer I play in the...

To be completely honest, any kind of red flags that I can't tolerate will just make me drop that LI's route and skip it, not necessarily 'delete' the game altogether.

Oooh. Something like Love and Deepspace, right? I hope Live2D animations are more implemented too. haha. I also kind of want something like Tokimeki Memorial Girl's Side way of letting players choose how to say the MC's name. Of course, that's still probably going to be limited to Japanese names...

This is honestly an interesting concept, and I understand how the idea of a F!Alpha appeals to many people, but like other people said here, I don't think I'm okay with the female MC having a male organ. Haha. If it's somehow retractable, I don't know if I'm fine with that either. A female Beta...

I think it's an interesting concept. I've only tried Ayakashi Gohan that has 2 types of MC(same person, but what type she is depends on the choices you make on the prologue/when she was a child), and I honestly really loved this game so much. There's this one game called Houkago Colorful Step...

I think there are hidden gems in Western otome games. I'm also guilty on the fact that I don't play any western otome games with art that doesn't appeal enough to me, but there are definitely games I thoroughly enjoyed that isn't Asian/Japanese(I'm not including Chinese and Korean otome games...
